Cooking Steps

Roast falafel and cook chicken
1
  • Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F.
  • Wash and dry all produce.
  • On an unlined baking sheet, toss falafel with 1 1/2 tbsp (3 tbsp) oil.
  • Roast in the middle of the oven for 8-10 min, flipping halfway through, until golden.
  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then chicken. Sear for 3-4 min per side, until chicken is golden and cooked through.**
Prep
2
  • Slice radishes into 1/4-inch rounds.
  • Roughly chop parsley.
  • Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
  • Drain, then roughly chop olives.
  • Zest, then juice half the lemon (whole lemon for 4 servings). Cut any remaining lemon into wedges.
Marinate veggies
3
  • Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together garlic, 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) oil, 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) lemon juice and 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) sugar.
  • Add carrots, radishes and half the parsley.
  • Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. 
Cook couscous
4
  • To a small pot, add 2/3 cup (1 1/3 cups) water and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt.
  • Cover and bring to a boil over high.
  • Once boiling, remove from heat, then add couscous. Stir to combine.
  • Cover and let stand for 5 min.
  • When couscous is tender, fluff with a fork.
Blister tomatoes
5
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
  • When hot, add tomatoes and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Cook for 3-4 min, stirring often, until tomatoes blister and soften. Set aside.
Finish and serve
6
  • To the pot with couscous, add tomatoes, olives, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) lemon zest, 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) butter and half the feta. Toss to combine.
  • Divide couscous between bowls.

If you've opted to add chicken breast tenders, pat dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper. Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then chicken. Sear for 3-4 min per side, until chicken is golden and cooked through.** Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm. Use the same pan to cook tomatoes in step 5.
